Shape of capsule: A circular cylinder with hemispheres mounted on both sides.
Radius of each hemisphere is equal to the radius of cylinder.
Let the length of the cylinder be h.
Surface area of capsule = Curved surface area of cylinder + Curved Surface area of two hemispheres
Surface area of capsule = 2 x pi x r x h + 2 x 2 x pi x r x r = 2 x pi x r x (h+2r)

It depends on the surface area of what!
Lenght X width = surface area
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
Find the surface area of each face then add them together to give the total surface area.
It should be relatively easy to find the surface area of a box when you are given the surface area.
